🕯️ ARC Review 🕯️
A Whiff of Murder by Angela M. Sanders brings scent magic and small-town murder, but uneven character choices held it back for me. A creative premise that didn’t fully bloom.

I opened Death of a Billionaire just to “peek” and lost my entire Sunday. Sharp writing, a BRILLIANT narrator, and an ending I never saw coming. Smart, addictive, and wildly clever. Add this to your TBR right now. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #BookReview #MysteryReads
January was an unrankable reading month. I read 56 books including cozy mysteries, paranormal reads, thrillers, and ARCs. No favorites, no rankings, just excellent books and honest insights into how I read, review, and choose ARCs.
😡 Spent hours reviewing an ARC, only to learn it was 100% AI, not human. ARC sites missed vetting. Now I extra-vet debut authors I want to champion. Time for AI book transparency! Ethical AI use? YES. Deception? NO. #AIBooks #ARCTransparency #BookReviewers #DebutAutho

Paris. Chocolate. Blackmail. Murder.
Mark Pryor’s The Most Mysterious Bookshop in Paris promises cozy mystery vibes and delivers a darkly sweet whodunit. But does it work as a standalone? Here’s my review! 🍫📚

🔐 Locked room. Locked doors. Locked-in chaos.
Everyone in This Bank Is a Thief is peak Ernest Cunningham. Witty, twisty, and impossible to put down. A smart heist mystery with humor for days.

📚 Murder by the Book by M.R.G. Davis had a clever murder puzzle and four amateur sleuths… but did four perspectives dilute the fun? Find out why I enjoyed the mystery but won’t return to the series. 🕵️♀️ #CozyMystery #BookReview #NetGalley #HarperCollins
The funniest undercover mission of the year is here! Gabby Greene’s back, juggling romance, espionage, and family in Gabby Green Knows Whodunit by Sam Tschida. A cozy, sun-soaked spy romcom you won’t want to miss. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #BookReview #GabbyGreene #CozyMystery
🕵️♀️📦 Burnt meatloaf. School drop-offs. Secret missions?!
Errands and Espionage by Sam Tschida is a laugh-out-loud cozy spy mystery with heart. Gabby Greene is chaotic, courageous, and unforgettable and I devoured this on audio 🎧💥
Some books sneak up on you and refuse to let go. The Wedding People by Alison Espach is tender, funny, quietly devastating and unforgettable. Not a romance, but a story about survival, friendship, and starting over. #BookReview #ViewsSheWrites #Recommended #HeartWarming
@Kitkatactual No, this is a new character created by Holly Hepburn. She works at the post office and specifically handles letters sent to Sherlock Holmes.
After 14 hours of listening, I’m still not sure what story The Readymade Thief was trying to tell. YA? Sci-fi? Art mystery? It’s all there and nowhere cohesive. My latest book club pick was a swing that didn’t quite land. Full review on Views She Writes. #BookReview #Audiobook
Dark humor. Thriller. Publishing satire. A Novel Crime surprised me in ways I didn’t expect. Disturbingly funny, emotionally unsettling, and sharply written. This ARC challenged my comfort zone and made me rethink this subgenre entirely. Honest review up now.
🔪 ARC Review 🔪 The Killer on My Doorstep by T. J. Brearton starts strong with a chilling premise but slows into a domestic suspense that never quite takes off. Twist-heavy, tense, but ultimately dragged by pacing. Thriller fans, this one’s a mixed bag. 📚
Harriet White’s back — and so is Moriarty (?!). Holly Hepburn’s The Locked Room brings wit, tension, and classic Holmes charm to 1930s London. Out Jan 20th TODAY!!! mark your TBR! #HistoricalMystery #ARC #BookReview #ViewsSheWrites
Three magical kittens. Two murders. One frazzled magician. 🐾
